The patriarch asked consecutive questions and asked one question repeatedly.
This made everyone present stunned for a moment.
Then... I felt that in the patriarch's question, there seemed to be some different meanings in it.
San Zhang frowned, took the lead to sit down, and asked: "Patriarch, what do you mean..."
The patriarch didn't care about him, only the young man.
The young man was confused and numb when he was seen by the patriarch. He nodded blankly and repeated: "Yes, he is the only one who does it..."
"Okay, let's go down."
"But the patriarch..."
"I will let you down!"
In a word, there was a crash!
The young man was forced by the air wave, and the whole person flew directly out of the chamber.
For many years, no one has seen the patriarch get angry, or even saw him do something.
It is also because it has not been seen for too long that it is easy for everyone to forget... How violent the Dinghai Shenzhen in the family was when he was young!
The patriarch was angry, and finally made everyone completely quiet.
The patriarch took a deep breath, then slowly spit it out, shook his head with a wry smile, and said: "When I grow old, I used to have a look in the eyes that could make the tribe withdraw from this chamber, but now I have to say it twice. I want to shout, I really am old."
In a word, if something is pointed out, it will make the faces of everyone present tighten.
San Zhang hurriedly said: "The patriarch is flourishing, who dares to say that you are old? The patriarch really thinks too much."
"Humph… "
The patriarch snorted coldly, and chose not to ignore him.
Instead, he turned his head to look at the second elder, and asked as if he was talking about the family: "Second, you have the best relationship with that child in Spring and Summer. There have been some correspondences in these years, right?"
The second elder nodded quickly and said: "Yes, the patriarch, although there are not many, there will always be some letters every once in a while."
"Ok."
This matter cannot be concealed. If it weren't for these correspondences, to be honest, this family wouldn't be able to find Chunxia so quickly.
The patriarch asked again: "In those news, did he mention the change of the door?"
The second elder's expression was a little bit painful, and he nodded helplessly, and said, "Not long ago, he originally wanted to take advantage of the chaos in the North Land to try his luck there, but he was taken away by Lu Yu by chance. Are his subordinates."
The most taboo of a big family is to change the door. If you are evicted from the house, or left by yourself, it is not actually a "leave" anymore. There is still some connection with the family, and the two parties will not really be so determined.
But... Once changed, it has nothing to do with the family, and often even becomes an enemy.
There are many such things in large families, and even many people gain power in other forces, in itself by selling the information and benefits of their own families.
"Oh, I see… "
The patriarch nodded slightly.
The second elder hurriedly said: "But the kid really didn't do anything bad for the family in Spring and Summer, so..."
"Well, needless to say."
Before the second elder finished speaking, the patriarch stretched out his hand to stop his next words.
Then suddenly he laughed and said, "I came back with Chunxia, and there are two others, right?"
"… Yes it is."
San Zhang was shocked and nodded quickly.
In fact, many people know about people who came back in early summer, but no one has said accurate numbers in front of the patriarch.
Now the patriarch said...
Mr. San Zhang couldn't help thinking in his heart, the patriarch, the old man, although his eyes were dizzy, as if he couldn't see anything, he still didn't relax a bit in his grasp of the family.
The patriarch nodded, and then said: "Then arrange a banquet. As a guest from afar, I will treat you well so as not to lose the demeanor of my big family."
This sentence really stunned everyone, including the second elder, he did not expect that the patriarch would actually put this matter down so lightly.
San Zhang was also taken aback, and he was out of breath for a long time.
Seeing that things were going to be settled in this way, he stood up and said: "Patriarch, never! This spring and summer hurt my people and killed four people. How can their families be comforted? If you don't give a reasonable one In terms of explanation, I’m afraid it is... I am afraid that people from this clan will hurt their hearts! Even if you don’t think about this, then... what should we do about the Xiao family? They are very anxious."
Appease the uncomfortable, everyone feels little about this matter.
Anyway, it's just a group of little kids who are making noise, and they are not as skilled as people when they die. Since they are not as skilled as people, they have to fight, that is stupid, dead again, and stupid... Who cares about them
Before, everyone was filled with indignation inspired by those words, but after calming down, especially when they knew that the patriarch also wanted to turn the big things into small things, they chose to forget those **** in the first place.
But the words Xiaojia... really shocked everyone's hearts, and they couldn't make it through.
The clan sighed and said, "How can we worry about other people's feelings when we do things? Hey... I'm still old."
With a fluttering sentence, the corners of the Third Elder's eyes twitched a few times, and then quickly sat down.
The patriarch said: "All of you present here are the mainstays of the family. Recently, I always feel that I have more than one heart but I don’t have enough energy. I am really old. I should give up my position and give you young people some opportunities. But see Your performance this time, I really don’t know... whether this burden can be put down, and whether you can put it down again."
Everyone's heart beat all of a sudden.
Yes, excited, even the second elder couldn't help his heart beating faster.
Old man... Are you planning to give way? This is really a big deal!
But then everyone reacted to the last sentence said by the patriarch.
The third elder took a deep breath and asked, "Um... Patriarch, I don't know what problem we showed today? Is it because we quarreled, that's why..."
The patriarch shook his head and said, "No, making a noise is actually a good thing. It's better than pressing the dissatisfaction in your heart and doing some hands and feet behind your back. The doubts in everyone's hearts are often the doubts of the whole family."
"This… "
The third elder and the second elder glanced at each other, and they felt that this sentence was meant for the second elder.
But then the patriarch said: "It's a rare opportunity, and... I don't think I have so much time. There are some things that shouldn't be said directly like this, but now... I can only speak frankly."
He looked out the door and said, "Boss, this guy is good at everything, but he is particularly irritable and has a bad temper. At the critical moment, he is afraid that he can't suppress his mentality, and it is easy to cause big problems. That's why I am Let him go out and practice. If he is more knowledgeable, his xinxing will be tougher. Now that he hasn't come back for such a long time, I am afraid that it is because of his personality that caused some trouble outside."
He looked at the second elder again and said, "The second child is also good at everything, but sometimes it is really too soft. There is a saying in the market that is not very pleasant, saying that the widow’s right and wrong are many, no matter what your original intentions and intentions are. , Even if you feel that you have a clear conscience, what is the use of your own ideas? The key is to see how others think of you. If you are an ordinary member of the clan, then what you do is understandable, but you are The elder is more likely to take over my position and become the next patriarch, so you should pay attention to your own words and deeds. Yes, this child in Spring and Summer is very difficult at a young age. You want to help and fulfill the promise you once made, but this is completely You can do it in a roundabout way, or by the hands of others, try not to let yourself get involved and leave your tongue. This is the most important thing. The melon field is naturally suspicious, and you are a wise man. You don’t want you to turn a blind eye to these doubts. , But to avoid such suspicious things as much as possible."
To the second elder, the patriarch said a lot, and this also proves that the patriarch is actually very optimistic about the second elder.
Looking at the three elders again, the patriarch sighed and said: "You, too selfish! The reason for the sudden trouble this time is not because of the dead clan members, there are distant relatives of you? Besides, you are smart on the surface. , But always listen to the wind is rain... People in power sometimes can't even believe their own eyes, but you tend to believe other people's mouths. This is a taboo!
The third elder nodded quickly, embarrassed.
The patriarch turned his head to look at the old man who had been ridiculing and sarcasm, and he sighed for a while and said, "Fourth old man, your business... I won't talk about it. I remember I needed to get up early to fetch water when I was young. There are clear springs and streams on the side of the mountain There are streams of water, one sweet, and the other clear. It is difficult to choose. After hesitating, I want to mark both of them, but the time is missed. After the water is drawn, I often miss the time for the elders to wash. For this reason, I often get scolded. what."
After speaking, the patriarch looked at the fourth elder pointedly, as if waiting for a response from him, and as if not.
On the other hand, the four elders remained motionless, but the sweat on his forehead had dripped onto the mat.
The patriarch sighed and stopped looking at him.
He looked at a few people, said a few words, and said at the end: "These are your strengths and weaknesses in the past. I will not evaluate them today. After all, some personalities need to be taken for a lifetime, and some can be tempered the day after tomorrow. But only Today’s matter, you all seem... a bit unwise."
The second elder arched his hands and said: "Please also the patriarch to show me down."
"Hey, okay," the patriarch said: "Today's matter, on the surface, Xiao Jia's marrying a wife is a murder in spring and summer, but in my opinion, the most important thing is only one thing."
The third elder also immediately asked, "My patriarch, what's the matter?"
The patriarch said: "We all know how this child is in the spring and summer, what is his aptitude, his character, and what his chances are. Thin, unbearable. But within a short period of time, the cultivation base has skyrocketed, and it can rival the young generation for decades. Among them, there are many talents in the family practice of Yaeshan. When they hear that their mother and sister are in danger, they will give up some immediately. Come back... Whether it is cultivation level or xinxing, they are different from before. The most important thing is this cultivation level... How do you think he achieved such a cultivation level?"
"This… "
That being said, this should be the most critical thing for all talents to think of.
Yeah, why did the spring and summer, who was weak and unqualified, suddenly became so powerful? Although it is only among the younger generation, if you are against these old guys, you may not be able to take advantage of it, but it is also... a very magical thing!
The patriarch continued: "You don't know, and you don't blame you. As for that battle... I know one or two. The exercises used in the spring and summer are seven points similar to our family heritage, three points are different, but this is the third point. It is different, but it makes him intimidating! Especially some of the moves, even more open and close, can be described as hearty! Is he newly learned the exercises, merged with the family exercises, and raised his power to Sri Lanka? Haha, I am afraid that it is extremely difficult to do with his qualifications. Then there is an expert to refine and improve our family's exercises, so as to make it several times stronger, or even dozens of times stronger! Then... If this set of improved exercises Learned by the whole family... Why didn't you think of this?"
